I'm running the Xackup trial and started backing up a few linux and windows VM's. I selected disk and memory state as the type of backup. Everything ran fine and backed up ok.
When I went to edit the scheduled backup plan I made to add another VM it complains that "a VM saved to a storage location cannot be restored to its previous running state and can have a greater performance impact on a system while a snapshot is taken."
Can anybody confirm whether or not this is 100% true? I am able to still select the option for disk and memory and the backups run fine. I can restore as well without issue. My only issue is I'm still testing out xen and xackups so I haven't been able to test out backups on important machines. So naturally I'm a little hesitant to commit to this.
If somebody could shed some light on disk backups vs. memory + disk backups I'd appreciate it.
